    It aired Sunday nights on the old Z107 in the mid-late 80s.

    And some dates he'd have an afternoon and evening show, or an early evening show and midnight show. Remember that back then, bands only played a 30 minute (or so) set. The jamboree shows had several different acts performing.

    It is Gemco. There was also one at North Freeway @ Airline across from Northline Mall, which is also now a Fiesta (or was the last time I was over there).

    One of them - Clark Kent Irvin - ran for congress a few years back. Putski had a school in Houston at one time, also. One of his graduates was current wrestling star Booker T.

    There was a Champ's on I-45 between West Rd. and Aldine Bender (FM 525). Had many a drunken breakfast there, once saw two waitresses get into a food fight. Last time I was in the area, there was a Mexican Seafood restaurant on the site (the building was completely remodeled and was painted Taco Cabana pink).

    I remember a drunken Oiler fan pouring a beer on my 14-year-old head.

    Update Re: Clodine General Store Drove by there today; they've got the place on stilts, so it looks like they're moving it somewhere.

    No, there's a Spring Branch ISD. http://www.springbranchisd.com/ The current high schools are Memorial, Northbrook, Spring Woods and Stratford. Spring Branch and Westchester were converted to magnet schools.

    Westview just east of Campbell in Spring Valley. My grandmother used to live in the area and my two oldest sisters went there. They converted it to a magnet school, I think. Not sure if it's still there. One semi-celebrity went there; pro wrestling great Gino Hernandez (real name, Charles Wolfe).

    I saw in the paper where Sysco is building a new distribution center in that area.

    He may have been referring to the apartments along Airline/Dyna/Goodson.

    Nadine Kujawa was my principal in elementary school. She and my mother butted heads about something, don't remember what, it's been 30+ years.. Anyone know what good ol' Mr Lewis is doing now? I heard he was an assistant superintendent at some point.

    Anyone remember where exactly on Hempstead Hwy. the Thunderbird was?

    Mission Bend is on a downhill slide now. Many people have moved to more affluent areas of Fort Bend County.

    Until about 5 years ago, there was a Sunny's on Alief-Clodine near Hwy. 6. It was demolished to make room for the Westpark Tollway underpass.

    I vaguely remember that jingle, so it lasted into the 70s.
  25. cowboybud
    That's my understanding.
